Here is a humidor I made back in October, 1997. I traded it for some work on my house.
The box is curly maple with a bookmatched top. The inlay, splines, handles and
tray risers are Gaboon ebony. The entire box is lined in Spanish
cedar. I made the escutcheon plate for the humidistat of curly maple, and
the escutcheon plate for the key of ebony.

I didn't like the humidifier, but
the client wanted it. I would have preferred to make an escutcheon plate
with a 50mm humidity gauge and the humidistat. It would have looked so much
better, but as we all know the customer is always right.
